NEARBY DEVICE SCANNING
←
Settings > Connections > More connection settings >
Nearby device scanning
This platform enables reliable and easy sharing of your pictures,
files, links and other content across compatible devices even if
they are from different manufacturers. Content will be shared via
Bluetooth Low Energy which will allow Nearby Device Scanning to
work even if you are offline.
For added protection, you can set your preferred visibility so that
you don’t receive files that you haven’t asked for.
NFC AND PAYMENT
←
Settings > Connections > NFC and contactless payments
Near Field Communication (NFC) allows you to communicate with
another device without connecting to a network. You can transfer
pictures, contacts and other data to a device that also supports
NFC and is within 4cm of your device.
This technology is used by some payment apps like Samsung Pay
and Google Pay as a contact-less way to transfer funds and make
payments. NFC transfers are encrypted, highly secure, and can
help speed up the checkout process at locations where NFC is
supported.
